I was thinking that the Cisco would be expecting to see a class C on
the internal ethernet and would just put things on the wire (after arp).
Since they cannot touch the Cisco, the next best thing is to fake it
with proxy-arp!

Yup, that would take care of the internal side. Though proxy-arp
probably would make things work OK with just the host route to the
Cisco on the debian box.
cheers.
